Millennium Force Breakdowns

Why was she bleeding so much? Did the goose peck at her? And I wonder how they got the train down, maybe they backed it up down the lift hill.

I am pretty sure it was the gooses blood. :}

I heard that she broke her nose. So that might explain a lot of the blood.

What a painful ride.

Back seat rules.

LOL, ok a goose hit somebody in the face. I'm sorry that's funny.

Poor kiddo.........

Yeah, eagle hit the train before we were to go on last August. Got stuck under the wheels, caused a shutdown for an hour while they tried to pry it out - since it was still alive.

And to think, we had exit passes from an earlier adventure on WT and decided to use them on MF - and ended up waiting the longest for any ride we took. What a piss-off.

From what I've heard, even the Superman rides that Joe E mentioned just have a visual indicator on the bar that shows the operators if it's down far enough. There's no electronic sensor.

Actually the sensor IS electronic - at least at SFNE, there's a new console on the ride op's booth with a display that shows if all lapbars are sufficiently down. This replaced the go/no-go belt off the side of the lapbar; this secondary mini-belt is now gone from the trains.

It's been back up a couple of days now. I was on the first train out this and yesterday morning's--a new expierence for me! It was awesome.
